Arboricultural Surveyors Required North Wales

[WestcoastArb]

We are an arboricultural and landscape consulting firm, based in North Wales. We’re urgently seeking subcontractor arboricultural surveyors for current projects in North Wales and the North-West. Work involves data capture of trees on large infrastructure projects to the BS 5837:2012 standard. Data capture devices, software, PPE and project-specific training provided. We're seeking to create a pool of knowledgeable, flexible arboriculturists to contribute to interesting, strategic projects. A number of projects are coming live now, so work is currently available. While this particular opportunity is for projects to be delivered over the next 3-6 months, we would hope that some talented prospects could be offered longer-term or employed posts.

Responsibilities

Collect tree data on large, generally rural development projects. Be able to interpret construction drawings and topographical surveys. Use GNSS systems to collect tree information, and understand and interpret wider landscape implications of the developments in question.

Qualifications

Level 4+ arboriculture qualification preferred, but very happy to speak to those with a strong practical basis to skills outside of the formal framework. Professional Tree Inspector qualification is desirable. Other tree assessment qualifications (QTRA, VALID etc) considered an asset. Additional training and mentoring will be provided to promising candidates. We have our own decay detection equipment (ArboTom 6 + ArboRadix root detection), Professional, cm-accurate GPS equipment, CAD and GIS facilities and Air- spading gear, and will help you develop skills with this advanced equipment.

Our Offer

We offer competitive day rates for competent and productive surveyors. Our principal has over 25 years experience in 5 countries, and close mentorship to enable candidates to develop quickly is provided. A paid work trial is offered to the right candidates, with the results informing a rate offer to the prospect. We're happy to arrange a video call to discuss our requirements and your aspirations.
